"Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; The desire accomplished is

sweet to the soul.--PROVERBS xiii, _v._ 12, 19.

I am watching--I am waiting;

And my heart droops sad and low.

No glad message brings me comfort

As the moments come and go.

While the flowers bask in sunshine;

While birds sing on every tree;

I am weary--weary, waiting--

For a message, love, from thee.
